Thus far, I have tried to use three different consumables which award influence to the player’s guild: the Tome of Influence (CE purchase) and two Letters of Commendation obtained through the personal story.
None of these has worked properly. The item always disappears from my inventory but no benefit is granted. It does not show up in the guild’s history. Also (I’m not sure if it is supposed to or not) it does not contribute to my Active Guild Member title track.
At first I thought maybe I was not representing the guild properly, but now I’m certain this is not the case.
